‘COMISTON’ c.1890’s Yesteryear’s Warmth Tailored for Today’s Living

Inspections by Appointment - Contact Rachael Spinks on 0411 10 10 15 to organise inspection time.
There are homes that merely capture the eye, and then there are those that capture the soul. Residing discreetly behind secure gates and high, protective hedges on an extraordinary 1222m2 of elevated land, 'Comiston' stands as a landmark of timeless grace in the heart of Paddington. Far more than a residence, this elegant c. 1890's colonial Queenslander is a private, peaceful sanctuary where the romance of Brisbane's architectural golden age seamlessly embraces modern family living.
In the foreground, a flat green lawn stretches out, bordered by fragrant lavender. It's a rare inner-city haven where little ones can spend afternoons playing on the grass or safely riding scooters under the watchful eye of parents relaxing on the wide wrap-around veranda.
Stepping up onto the north-east facing front veranda, you'll feel beautiful breezes and lovely light all day. By night, this vantage point transforms into an elite dress circle seat to the twinkling Brisbane city lights, so close you feel as though you could reach out and touch the spectacular city skyline. It is the quintessential stage for a lifetime of milestone celebrations - from sophisticated cocktail parties to watching the fireworks burst across the midnight sky.
The entrance serves as a beautiful prelude to what lies within. Stunning stained glass frames the front door, which swings open to reveal a wide foyer. Immediately, your eye is drawn upward to the soaring 3.7-metre ceilings, while the rich warmth of wide blackbutt timber floors, VJ walls, and intricate timber fretwork reflect the meticulously restored craftsmanship of a bygone era.
To the right of the central hall lies the master suite - a romantic retreat of generous proportions. A beautiful bay window frames the lush greenery of the front garden by day and invites the dramatic backdrop of the city lights by night. Hidden seamlessly behind a vast bank of custom built-in robes is a hidden treasure: a luxuriously appointed ensuite. It boasts Carrara marble floors with underfloor heating, crisp white subway tiles to the ceiling, a spacious walk-in shower, heated towel rack, and custom vanity with gleaming chrome tapware.
Across the hall, the expansive formal lounge awaits. Easily the size of two large living spaces, it is anchored by a stunning ceiling rose and chandelier. Three sets of French doors across two sides allow the room to merge seamlessly with the wrap-around verandas, capturing lovely light and breeze and drawing the outside in.
The long central hall continues branching out to a collection of beautifully appointed rooms. The second and third bedrooms are very generous in size, and both feature large windows and extensive floor-to-ceiling built-in-robes. The fourth bedroom, currently used as a home office, offers wonderful versatility. Complete with built-in robes and french doors to the veranda, it would make an equally perfect nursery or children's bedroom.
Centrally positioned to service these rooms is the stunning family bathroom. Beautifully blending classic elegance with modern luxury, it features Carrara marble flooring with underfoot heating, heated towel racks, extensive storage, and a very chic chandelier. Taking pride of place is an exquisite ROCA clawfoot bath, serving as the romantic centrepiece of the room.
Moving deeper into the residence, the elegant formal dining room promises to host decades of memorable family gatherings. Featuring a gorgeous ceiling rose with chandelier, and a crackling wood-burning fireplace, an oversized window perfectly frames a serene view of the lush gardens. Large french doors open directly to the wrap-around veranda, allowing guests to transition effortlessly from sunset cocktails straight to the dining table. Large enough to comfortably seat twenty guests, this room caters beautifully to both intimate candlelit dinner parties and grand, extended family Christmases and milestone celebrations.
